Embark on a splendid journey through the scenic Tuscan countryside to the historic city of Pisa, renowned for its architectural marvels. Upon arrival, your knowledgeable expert guide will lead you on a comprehensive walking tour of Piazza dei Miracoli, home to extraordinary monuments known as "miracles" due to their beauty and distinctiveness. Prepare to be captivated by the breathtaking square dominated by the Cathedral, where you will explore its interior—a remarkable example of Pisa Romanesque architecture.
Marvel at the iconic Leaning Tower and the round-shaped Baptistery, as well as the evocative Camposanto, a former cemetery enclosed by a splendid marble facade marking the northern boundary of the Square. Our guide will provide intriguing insights, with a particular emphasis on the Leaning Tower, an architectural wonder that has fascinated visitors for centuries.
Concluding the guided walking tour near the magnificent Leaning Tower, you will have the optional privilege of entering its interior with skip-the-line access. Climbing the tower's spiral staircase of 294 steps will offer you an impressive experience like no other. Rising 55.86 meters (183.27 feet) from the ground on the lower side and 56.70 meters (186.02 feet) on the higher side, with a tilt of approximately 3.99 degrees, the tower's unique leaning structure is the result of a weak and unstable subsoil. This extraordinary phenomenon has contributed to its status as one of the world's wonders, fascinating the imagination of all who visit.
